Our School
Fostering creative expression and telling stories that resonate.
The University of South Florida School of Theatre & Dance facilitates the growth of creative and academic artists and scholars. Rigorous training in the studio and classroom combined with frequent performance opportunities give students practical experience. Theatre students can pursue Bachelor of Arts degrees with concentrations in theatre performance, theatre design, and theatre arts. Dance students can earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance with a concentration in ballet or contemporary dance, or a Bachelor of Arts in Dance Studies. The school also offers minors and undergraduate certificate programs that are open to non-majors and non-degree-seeking students.
Theatre欧美三级片 began with the founding of the university in 1956, and the Dance欧美三级片 program opened in 1969. In 2002 the two performance-driven educational bodies combined to create the School of Theatre & Dance.

Working closely with our nationally and internationally recognized faculty, you will build mentoring relationships that provide the support and guidance to strengthen your skills and confidence. Be it the professional world or graduate school, we provide the education, experience, and fellowship to help you achieve your goals.
